Slatwall Full of Chinese Exports

Just thought I'd stand up for the LDS as they seem to take a lot of flack. I have an LDS full of Gridwall, Slatwall is MDF and so 90's. I would like to know what products we should have on our Gridwall? Instead of things made in China/far flung country.

We do have many things that are 'Chinese Export' on the wall, we also have many things that are not. What do we change our CE products for? Does anyone have any realistic options?

As a relatively new LDS, situated close to existing shops, you can't name any brands they sell, 'cos I can't buy them.

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.

Go into Underwater Explorers, take a photo, then stock what they stock but 50% cheaper so I don't have to pull my eyebrows out of my hairline every time I go in.

there's nothing wrong with Chinese products, so long as the quality is suitable.

You've hit the nail on the head.
